Sony and Polyphony Digital have announced Gran Turismo 7 Update 1.52, and it's bringing three sleek new cars for you to check out, plus a few extra bits and pieces.

Your first new car is the Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VIII MR GSR '04, which...well, to be honest, that's a mighty fine bunch of numbers and letters, but I'm not enough of a car enthusiast to know what they mean. I'm sure it's fast, though!

You're also getting the Nissan GT-R Premium Edition T-spec '24, a speedy-looking sports car with a pretty beautiful dashboard, as well as the Toyota Hiace Van DX '16, which won't be winning any races but which looks like a sturdy and reliable enough little vehicle.

Other new features in this update include a brand new Cafe menu, which shows off an Audi collection and features some fun info about the German car industry.

You can also look forward to new World Circuit events, including the Sunday Cup, which takes place on the Tokyo Expressway, as well as the Circuit de Sainte-Croix's Nissan GT-R Cup and the Kyoto Driving Park's Evolution Meeting.

More tracks have also been made compatible with Gran Turismo 7's Sophy AI, so you've got more places to test your skills against this advanced driving intelligence. Just don't be ashamed if you lose; that's what it's built for, after all.

This update is the latest in a long string of content drops for Gran Turismo 7, which have brought plenty of new cars to the game since it launched back in March 2022, as well as new tracks and more.

Hopefully, some of these updates have been able to take the sting out of Sony delisting Gran Turismo Sport without warning back in January, which probably left a fair few racing fans in the lurch.

Gran Turismo 7 is available right now for PlayStation consoles. Update 1.52 is due to arrive tomorrow, so make sure you're ready for it when it's up for download!
